no, excuse -my- lack of technical knowledge!

Your problem sounded like one I had---no matter which version I used, the vendor column always "reflected" it back to me, making for very poor connections. Turned out my Internet Service Provider was experimenting with a filesharing controller called Sandvine, that tries to keep most connections within the ISP's network, primarily. See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=15490 for more.

You might want to ask your ISP if they use something like that.
